There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
How do I clear a VSS fault without a reader/scanner?
- Thread starter Katerob00
- Start date
Firstly, very few BRP/Can Am faults can be sorted with just any reader &/or scanner, almost all faults that are significant will require the BRP proprietary BUDS/BUDS2 system to resolve.
Buuut, do you know what triggered either/both? Have you tried carefully riding it a couple of hundred metres? :dontknow:
Often, the VSS can be triggered by a momentary (or maybe a bit longer) difference in rotational speed differences between the wheels; and the Check Engine light can be a 'catch all' warning for things that don't have their own warning light... And if there's a fault that occurs and then goes away (saaayyy, when that wheel you lifted drops back onto the ground and starts spinning at the same speed as the rest of them.
) then the warnings can be momentary warnings triggered by that but then clear themselves after short ride without the triggering issues recurring. However, if those triggers recur &/or go on for long enough, those warnings may be logged cos they're telling you that the trigger/fault needs to be resolved before they'll clear themselves or can otherwise be cleared by connecting the BUDS/BUDS2 & resolving that way - so do you know or have any idea about what happened to trigger those warnings?? :dontknow:
You might want to check things like the speed sensors & index discs on each wheel - if there's a sensor unplugged or maybe mud caught in a few teeth on one or more of those index discs, the wheel speed sensor signal sent to the computer can be somewhat confusing about wheel speed and so trigger a VSS fault because the computer gets that dodgy reading and thinks that you're spinning/sliding madly all over the road... or maybe you've just got one really flat tire that's turning slower than the rest?
Still, you need to try and identify then fix the problem/s that've triggered those warnings so that they can (might??) clear themselves, or if it's a more significant/ongoing thing, you just might be stuck with needing BUDS/BUDS2 Sorry!

Not that I can help all that much with Rykers (for some reason, I don't see too many of them over here?? :dontknow
but if you do a search here on those codes, only C006C comes up, but every time it does, it's related to brakes & comms faults of some sort... eg.
I couldn't see anything on the first code you put up during a thorough cursory glance at the Forum, but you might want to try entering C006C in the Search box up toward the Top Right Corner of the screen, ticking the 'Show Results as Posts' box, & submitting the search - then have a read thru what's produced in the results. None of it might be exactly specific, but it should give you some ideas on what to look for. The first few results may not be applicable at all, but working down the page it started to get interesting & sounding more like it could help you. It's always worth doing a Search.
Good Luck! :cheers:

From a Google search C0064 appears to be related to the roll rate sensor and the comment is that the sensor is not within factory settings.
